My family member just completed 7 weeks of post-surgery rehab at Winchester Gardens. The PT, OT and nursing staff were fantastic 7 days a week. Peggy (social work) provided weekly updates about progress. The nursing managers and therapy manager were responsive to all concerns, and took all questions seriously. The rooms are lovely abd the unit is calm and attractive. We are very very satisfied!

My mom is doing rehab here. This facility is outstanding. The staff is not only caring and kind but they work together as a team and create an atmosphere of fun. Huge positive vibes all day long. Extremely impressive place!

I would like to thank the staff and nurses at Winchester Gardens, particularly in the Sheffield section, for taking great care of my father, Michael, who sadly passed away recently. He was admitted to the facility in early 2023 after my mother passed away. The nurses were caring and understanding of my father's needs, and were patient. Thank you for keeping him clean and fed. The grounds were always immaculate and the facility offered a variety of entertainment.

I have been visiting relatives who lived at Winchester Gardens for 25 years. I’ve observed first-hand the various aspects of life there. In my view, under the leadership of the current Executive Director, the facility has been very well-managed and the staff very caring. In my dealings with her, I have found the Director to be always professional, straightforward, kind, and responsive. How she handled COVID was impressive. My mother lived at Winchester from 2000 until she died at the age of 93 in 2015. Her two sisters then moved into Independent Living in 2016. One died in 2018, but the other continued to live in her own apartment until 2024, when she moved to Assisted Living at the age of 100. That aunt died in July 2025. During my many visits (at least weekly) over the years, only in the rare instance were the staff anything but professional and caring, whether it be administrators, program heads, nurses, therapists, health aides, maintenance and facilities workers, concierges, or van drivers. To the contrary, the staff conveyed a real sense of willingness, and even eagerness, to help. When my mother and aunts lived in Independent Living, I was impressed with how management and staff advocated for the independence and agency of the residents. I learned a lot from them about the capacity of the elderly to live full, independent lives. My most recent and most intense experience was with the Assisted Living side of the facility. My aunt received care there for a year and a half before she died. Up close, I saw how challenging the staff’s job is – emotionally and physically. They do such important work under what can be difficult circumstances. Yet they were across the board responsive to my many questions, concerns, requests, etc., and I felt as if we were on the same team – working together to make my aunt’s life easier and more comfortable.

I usually do not post google reviews but I am compelled to give this review. My 97 old mother fractured her leg close to three months ago and went to Winchester Gardens (Sheffield) in Maplewood for rehab. Luckily, because of the great care received, she was able to finally make it home yesterday. The admission process was handled with much caring and professionalism as was the discharge process. The administration, nursing staff, PT and OT staff, aids, Medical Doctors, housekeepers, activity staff and the dining room staff all deserve a shout out for their expertise, professionalism and compassion. They truly made us feel like family. A plus is all the wonderful activities provided to the residents and rehab patients. The facility has a beautiful parklike setting which mom really enjoyed. I strongly recommend Winchester Gardens to anyone needing rehab. Kudos to all of the Administrators and staff listed below who made mom’s recovery happen. My apologies for those I forgot to list but they deserve kudos as well.
